    If Lottery Rigging Exist, Aren't the Jazz Safe?

    Laws of average suggest that eventually these kind of strikes of luck should follow small markets too, like they do come to the Lakers of the league. Some think it will happen. Some also still think there was nothing sus in 9/11.

    If Lottery Rigging Exist, Aren't the Jazz Safe?

    Good points. I think it must be a magician/illusionist that helps them to set it up (heck, one of them could even be he said illusionist). Best of them can even trick cameras, not to talk about human eye itself. Nevertheless, the Occam razor principle suggests it's rigged. The draft have been...

    If Lottery Rigging Exist, Aren't the Jazz Safe?

    If it wasn't rigged we'd see real time drawing. It makes no sense to not have it unless it's rigged. And why this? Because real time lottery drawing would garner real interest. And what does that mean? It means profits, money, cash. But as rigging the lottery means prolly more profit, money...

    Holy macaroni, Mario! I think they put cream in the carbonara! And such a crime was also the way Jazz played. It's tough though, B2B in NY with one of the crappiest team to follow with one of the grittiest. Put these other way around and it wasn't as ugly

    Must win-game. Lost the hope with the pick, itll end up to OKC. Now play-in and first round exit is my new best friend.

    Too reactionary mate. Make few more threes in past two weeks and Lauri would have scored his normal 25 in most games. Shooters gonna have slumps especially if you face teams like OKC or Houston in that period. And shooters gonna feast when you have a stretch like Jažz had to start the season -...

    Yeah, his style of scoring to maintain 30ppg is a quite a big ask. He improved his handle a little bit in the off season and his midrange game, but I feel it needs another step so he doesn't have to be running as much thru the screen actions. It works easier, when there's no guys defending like...

    You can't make big interpretations based on some OKC game, that team is insane and defensively the worst possible matchup to Lauri as of many. The Lakers game again... First time this season Lauri felt more just annoyed than poised - but still got it going for last five minutes. I said...

    Nba is going to be so effing boring for a decade. OKC has one of all time defensive teams with lot of shooters as well, and they just have picks coming and coming and coming.

    Too good to tank?

    There will be possibly a record number of teams having winning percent under 30% so it's gonna be hard to be bottom five, even if the defense is as bad it is for the Jazz. Even 6th worst pingpong ball slot would be quite worrying.
